Alright, before we begin the in-depth photo-shoot, let me make something clear. This case is 100% clear and comes in a low profile cube. Low as in "this is not intended for high-end gear."

The chassis is divided into two separate levels. The lower part is for your HD's, optical and PSU. The upper part for your mainboard plus peripherals. Very nice, as it's really easy to not only look at yet also reach your components. We'll show you that later though.

Drive Bay	5.25" Drives Bay x 2 3.5" Drives Bay x 2( Internal )
Front I/O Port	USB 2.0*2 + Speaker + Microphone

Alright, yes .. I didn't mention that. It doesn't come hassle free, you need to build this unit from ground up. No worries though, we'll show you a thing or two.

The UFO Acrylic Cube comes unassembled and well packed with lots of foam protection.

After removing the outer protection, we look at the innards of the box with all the pieces. Everything is nicely separated with thin foam sheets. With all this protection, damage during shipping will be kept to a minimum. The only real danger from damage is from the carelessness of the end user building the cube.

A review on the SunBeamtech Acrylic HTPC chassis. A fully functional HTPC chassis, with proper cooling, front panel, UV lit fans all at a very sharp price of just 79 USD. Sunbeamtech offers their Acrylic HTPC case in two versions: a clear non-UV reagent acrylic (HTPC-T) or using a blue UV-reagent acrylic (HTPC-HUVB), the model we reviewed.

SunBeamTech UFO Acrylic Cube Case review
Face it, it's short from stunning how many cases there are out there to pick from. So why Acryllic you ask ? Well .. ehm I dunno. it's just looking so damn cool. See if you forget about the fact that kit's the worst material to use as a chassis cooling wise, incredibly "not" handy to work with, scratchable, smears everywhere and oy .. the fingerprints. But all that aside .. if you get the wiring and lighting right, an Acrylic chassis might be one of the coolest things you've ever built.

SunBeamtech Tuniq 3 chassis review
Today we'll peek at Sunbeamtech's Tuniq line of products (Tuniq is actually a subsidiary product series of Sunbeamtech). They have the new Tuniq 3 out, an aluminum looking and styled chassis which in our photo lab was one of the hardest things ever to photograph!

SunBeamtech 'Silent Storm' ATX mid tower
This PC case is made for the people who like silence, good cooling yet do not want to own a screamy flashy lit PC. And the guys from SunBeamtech did a very nice job in designing a mid-tower PC case like this.
